BODYTRAFFIC (SFP)
Sensory-Friendly Performance
“It’s all green lights for BODYTRAFFIC.”—Los Angeles Times
BODYTRAFFIC’s troupe of “unfailingly deft and endearing dancers” (Los Angeles Times) takes the stage with three compelling works that embody the company’s energy, sophistication, and joy in dance. The mesmerizing program includes Recurrence, a duet created by Ethan Colangelo, who has garnered much attention, including recent multiple awards at the prestigious Copenhagen International Choreography Competition, and A Million Voices by Matthew Neenan. Rounding out the program is Micaela Taylor’s engaging SNAP, a piece that urges us to “snap out of” the social pressure to conform.
